It's time to address menstruation in the workplace – period.
I had a chat with
Janhavi Jain from HR Brain Pickings, a weekly newsletter that acts as HR for the HR, and we talked about Period-Friendly Workplaces.
Having policies and practices in place to make it more comfortable for people who menstruate is crucial for creating a more inclusive, equitable, and compassionate workplace. Menstruation is often stigmatized, especially in India, where it is not a law to provide material support to menstruating individuals. It is a stigma even at home that gets carried to workplaces.
I can say that having a period-friendly workplace is not only about fostering diversity but also about enhancing workplace productivity.
By taking small steps towards creating a more empathetic and sensitive workplace, companies can create a better place for all employees, especially those who menstruate.
